Everything about New Among Us Airship Map
Among Us is an online social deduction game developed and published by Innersloth Studio and runs on the Infinity Game engine.This online multiplayer science fiction murder mystery game was released on IOS and android devices and for Microsoft Windows in 2018.Even though it was released in 2018, the game rose to fame recently during pandemic in 2020.Even though there was social distancing during lockdown socialising was allowed, thus increasing the number of online users.The game was well praised by the streamers and youtubers making it more popular.
The game was inspired from the game Mafia and science fiction horror film The Thing.Among Us has now emerged as one of the most engaging and fun game to play online. Apart from its exciting murder mystery game, it is one of the best game to play with friends. Conversations with friends can get really funny and can relax you from your daily routine.It features the crewmate who departs the ship by completing various tasks and imposters who try to sabotage their progress and kill them.
The game takes place in space-themed settings with players taking the role of either being crewmates or imposters. The goal of the crewmates is to find the imposter, eliminate them and complete the task around the map and the goal of the imposter is to sabotage the place and kill the crewmates before they all complete the tasks.The players can eliminate the imposters if they suspect anyone through voting by initiating an emergency meeting if the player suspect any crewmate to be an imposter or is found someone dead. Crewmate will win if all the imposters are eliminated and have completed the tasks.While imposter will win, if there is an equal number of Impostors and Crewmates, or if a critical sabotage goes unresolved. It is set on four locations such as a spaceship, above-the-earth base, planet base and airship.
Among Us either takes place in a spaceship, building, an air planer or an airship with two types of roles crewmate and imposter.The game can have a total of ten players online with up to two or three imposters. An imposters objective is to eliminate players and crewmates objective is to complete all the task which is in the form of mini-games such as fixing the wiring, emptying garbage, swiping an ID card, etc and also to discover the imposters and remove them through plurality voting. When a player dies he becomes a ghost who can explore the whole place without colliding on the walls. They cannot communicate with the living crewmates but can talk with other ghosts.
Recently the game created another mode called Slasher mode which is specially made for imposters. Through this mode, the imposter can slash the crewmates into halves before they complete the task. A sequel titled Among Us 2 was announced to be released by 2021 but was cancelled later and decided to improve the original version because of its popularity. Anyway, other forms of merchandise such as T-shirts and toys have been announced and launched.
Currently, the game is available in more than fifteen languages such as English, Spanish, Korean, Russian and many more. It can be played on Windows, IOS and Android devices free of cost. The game has received many awards as well such as the best mobile game and best multiplayer game in 2020, Golden Joystick 2020, steam award 2020 in 2021, webby awards 2021, etc.
At the start of the game the crewmate is given tasks to complete around the map in the form of mini games including fixing wires and downloading data.
Whereas imposters are given a fake list of tasks to blend with the crewmates.However, they can’t perform tasks but can sabotage the system, travel through Vent, help the other crewmates with work to kill them and they become a ghost who has no limitation to explore. Game can also be ended by players quitting the match if doing so fulfills any win condition because if a crewmate quits the game, their tasks are automatically considered as completed.
In each game’s lobby, there are options to customize the game.You can change speed, allowed number of meetings,number of tasks and cosmetic options.
